Getting Character Sets and Fonts (Language Packs)

Method #3: A Combination Method Using 2 Sets of Charts

Continuing printing scenarios, you could use a combination of Methods #1 and #2. First, enter all the

characters you are able to using the IBM ASCII Chart. Then use the second method to enter a different

character. However, be aware that you may have problems when combining the two methods.

For example, if the same label is slightly altered, such as the second line in the From section is changed

to read “shipping@loftware.com”. When this line is printed using the Intermec Printer’s Advanced

Character Table and language in the Loftware’s Devices | Options | Language section set to France, the

symbol @ is changed to à. See the Intermec Advanced Character Table to understand this conversion.

Windows Printers and Laser Jets

International Language options in Printer Setup are not available when using Windows Printers. Since

they use TrueType fonts, the IBM ASCII Chart can be used as an option to add characters, as well as

inserting the symbols that are available through various fonts. Each font uses a different Char Map.

Note: This same method may also be used for .pas files with the Loftware Print Server.

Printing Encoded (Single byte) Data, Per-Label Method

When would you use the per-label method?

Suppose you are designing a label that you would like to be able to send to several different countries,

and you would like to use the same printer for this label. With the per-label method, you can design the

label as a template, and then configure the label in different languages, changing the Character Set for

each label to meet the language requirements.

The methods used in this section are quite similar to those used in the Per-Printer section, with some

minor differences, as listed below:

1. Create a label in Loftware Design Mode.

2. Press F5, or select File | Media Setup, and then click Label Options.

3. Choose the language in which you wish to print under the Symbol Set or Character Set list.

Using either method, the options are sent to the printer for the label being printed.However, when

setting the single byte character set, a check is made to see if a setting in Label Options has been made,

and if it has, this setting overrides any value set in the Printer Options.

Getting Character Sets and Fonts (Language Packs)

What are Character Sets?Character sets are collections of characters that include the different glyphs that

make up a particular natural (human) language. While the English Character Set has about 200+ glyphs

associated with it, natural languages such as Japanese have thousands.So, a Character Set is a human

language.
